Cognitive Training in Academically Deficient ADDH Boys Receiving Stimulant Medication.
Abikoff, Howard; And Others
Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology, v16 n4 p411-32 Aug 1988
Thirty-four stimulant-treated, academically deficient, and attention deficit disordered, hyperactive (ADDH) boys (ages 7-12) participated in a 16-week, intensive cognitive training program focusing on academic skills and tasks. Intervention did not enhance self-esteem and there was poor agreement between teacher ratings of academic competence and test score changes. (Author/JW)
